It has just been confirmed that the current West End production of The King and I, will be filmed live at the London Palladium and is set to be screened in select UK cinemas for one night only on November 29th 2018. More information and ticket information here.
The multi Tony Award-winning production of Rodgers & Hammerstein's The King and I transferred from Broadway to London following a critically acclaimed 16 month run at New York's Lincoln Center Theater and an unprecedented continuing record-breaking sold out USA tour.
At the London Palladium, the show stars three of the original Lincoln Center Theater lead actors: Tony Award winner Kelli O'Hara as Anna Leonowens, film star, Oscar and Tony nominee (for his role on The King and I) Ken Watanabe in the title role of The King of Siam and Ruthie Ann Miles reprising her Tony Award winning role of Lady Thiang. Japanese actress Naoko Mori shares the role of Lady Thiang. Takao Osawa, the multi-award-winning actor and star of one of Japan's most popular television series JIN, plays the Kralahome, trusted adviser to The King of Siam. Dean John-Wilson (who starred in the title role of Disney's original West End production of Aladdin) and Na-Young Jeon play the young lovers, Lun Tha and Tuptim.
